Do you picture streets of gold and mansions on clouds? Do you picture physical bodies with every need being satisfied? Or do you picture something completely abstract? (such as being absorbed into God as little finite elements of his vastness as he continues creation)
For non theists...I know you can quickly say "there is no heaven" but just suppose there was a heaven ... If you did believe in heaven what would it be like?

In the spiritual sky all the planets are as good as the Lord Himself. The Lord is all spirit, and His name, fame, glories, qualities, pastimes, etc., are all nondifferent from Him because He is absolute. As such, the planets in the kingdom of God are also nondifferent from Him. In those planets there is no difference between the body and the soul, nor is there any influence of time as we experience it in the material world. This material world is only a shadow phantasmagoria of the spiritual kingdom of the Lord, and because it is a shadow it is never eternal; the variegatedness in the material world of duality (spirit and matter) cannot be compared to that of the spiritual world. That creation is beyond of this material creation.
Everyone, including animals and plants, in the kingdom of God are engage in their unalloyed spiritual essence practice of the amorous service of the Supreme Lord as their only lover; where every tree is a transcendental purpose tree; where the soil is the purpose gem, all water is nectar, every word is a song, every gait is a dance, the flute is the favorite attendant of the Lord, effulgence is full of transcendental bliss and the supreme spiritual entities are all enjoyable and tasty, where numberless milk cows always emit transcendental oceans of milk; where there is eternal existence of transcendental time, who is ever present and without past or future and hence is not subject to the quality of passing away even for the space of half a moment. That realm is known as Goloka only to a very few self-realized souls in this world.
